Our Story

Ken and Stephanie opened their first “meal assembly” retail location in 2004. Stephanie brings her artistic design, expression and love for the culinary arts to Dinner A’Fare. She never strayed far from her roots as her passion for cooking, fresh foods, and “bringing families together” was born from spending time on her grandparents’ working farm in North Carolina. When she met her future husband Ken, who was studying business and technology, the core ingredients of Dinner A’Fare started to come together. Since their journey began, they overcame economic downturns, “venture capital-backed” corporate competitors, and personal/physical challenges to grow today’s thriving business. Ken and Stephanie quickly realized that in order to be convenient dinner had to be delivered. Dinner A’Fare began prepared dinner delivery throughout metro Atlanta, and shipping nationwide. They have always focused on bringing families together by providing delicious, healthy, high quality, “kid-friendly” meals. Meals that are “from Ken and Stephanie’s family to yours.”

Our Partners

Carefully chosen partnerships ensure the quality of every Dinner A’Fare meal. Our partners are the foundation of what we do at Dinner A’Fare, and we only team with the best. Our goal is to align ourselves with organizations steeped in a rich family history like our own.

We seek purveyors that offer premium products, highly-personalized service and long-term relationships. We’ve been making meal-kits since 2004, and our partners have been there every step of the way. Our relationships are considered the gold standard in food service.

Selecting local farmers, dairies, and artisans allows us to truly connect with the communities we serve. Every Dinner A’Fare meal served at a family table is vitally important to us and our partners. We take dinner and family seriously and we love that our partners do as well.

Our Heart

The generosity of community partners has enabled Habitat for Humanity to help 6.8 million people find strength, stability and independence through safe, decent and affordable homes.
Habitat for Humanity is close to our heart at Dinner A’Fare. We believe in a strong, healthy family environment. With an affordable, well-built home, families can turn their attention to
high quality food, medicine, child care, education and other essentials. Participating in the Habitat for Humanity process, where families spend hundreds of hours contributing to the build of their own home, is a special honor. Dinner A’Fare supports Habitat for Humanity through a “Stock the Freezer” initiative providing nourishing meals for new homeowners. “Move in day” is very busy. It is a day filled with a public dedication, the signing of a mortgage, and moving furniture. We are happy to stock the freezer full of family meals that everyone will enjoy! We’re extremely thankful to Habitat for Humanity for allowing us to contribute to these special moments.http://www.habitat.org/

Testimonials

“All the 5th grade teachers at Pharr Love Dinner A’Fare… it is funny at lunch every day we talk about what meal we cooked for dinner. All 5 of us order around the same time and get so excited when someone brings left overs of something we have yet to cook. It is ALWAYS the topic of conversation at lunch at Pharr Elementary plus it saves us all a lot of time!”

AmandaMarietta, Georgia“My husband was very hesitant to try Dinner A’Fare because he loves to cook. But, with 2 small children at home, I finally convinced him. He was sold after the first meal! He loves that he still gets to prepare the meals. We can’t get over how fresh the meats are! This has been a life saver for our busy, busy life. We will definitely be ordering over and over again!”

LauraRoswell, GeorgiaI love Dinner A’Fare because they deliver. The food is excellent and my husband loves it. My kids are picky so I modify theirs sometimes but it works well for us. I have 3 kids and 1 plays travel baseball so it is nice to have dinner ready for my husband even though we are so busy. Thanks!

IreneSugar Hill, GeorgiaI love to come home after the dental office and know I have a delicious and healthy meal made by a professional chef waiting for me. It has helped us stay on track as a family so much and evenings go much smoother, especially with a three year old and a hungry husband. Shopping for groceries without dinner ingredients is much easier and less expensive as well. Love it and recommended it to my mom and she loves it, too!!! Thanks!!!

AnnaWinter Park, Florida“Dinner A’Fare has saved our family from frozen dinners, fast food and sandwiches. Thank you so much for making our lives easier and tastier.”

GeorgeAtlanta, Georgia“It is like 2 dates in one. Once when we come in to prepare the meal and the second when we actually prepare the meal.”

JenniferCharlotte, North Carolina”Dinner a fare was a blessing when we had our 2nd child last year. Since the meals are already prepared, I’ve been able to spend much more time with my baby instead of in the kitchen!”

CreecyLawrenceville, Georgia“We LOVE all of the unique recipes.”

StephenBirmingham, Alabama“We love it! These are quick and easy dinners that are perfect for our busy schedules. ”

RyanDallas, Texas“I’ve been using Dinner-­a-Fare since 2/24/07. Thank you for partnering with me to have delicious meals on our dining table!”
